Expression of Zinc transporter ZIP3 in rat hippocampus - Immunohistochemical staining of perfusion-fixed frozen rat brain sectionsusingAnti-ZIP3 (SLC39A3) Antibody(#AZT-003) (1:400) followed by goat-anti-rabbit-AlexaFluor-488 antibody. ZIP3 staining (green) appears in CA1 neurons in the pyramidal layer (arrow). Nuclei are labeled with DAPI (blue).
product information
cat :
STC-170
SKU :
STC-170_0.5 mg
Product Name :
Cono RPRF-amide
Group Type :
Non Antibodies
Product Type :
Proteins
Applications :
Electrophysiology
Formulation :
Lyophilized from double distilled water (ddH2O). May contain TFA as a residual counter ion.
Storage After Reconstitution :
The reconstituted solution can be stored at 4°C for up to 1 week. For longer periods (up to 6 months), small aliquots should be stored at -20°C. We do not recommend storing the product in working solutions for longer than a few days. Avoid multiple freeze-thaw cycles.
Reconstitution and Solubility :
Centrifuge the vial (10,000 × g for 5 minutes) before adding solvent to spin down all the powder to the bottom of the vial. The lyophilized product may be difficult to visualize. Add solvent directly to the centrifuged vial. Gently tap, tilt, and roll the vial to aid dissolution. Avoid vigorous vortexing; light vortexing for up to 3 seconds is acceptable if needed. The product is soluble in pure water at high micromolar concentrations (100 µM - 1 mM). For long-term storage in solution, we recommend preparing a stock solution by dissolving the product in double-distilled water (ddH2O) at a concentration between 100-1000x of the final working concentration. Divide the stock solution into small aliquots and store at -20°C. Before use, thaw the relevant vial(s) and dilute to the desired working concentration in your working buffer. Centrifuge all product preparations before use. It is recommended to prepare fresh solutions in working buffers just before use. Avoid multiple freeze-thaw cycles to maintain biological activity.

Gene ID :
ASIC3
Product Page - Scientific background :
Cono RPRF-amide conotoxin is a peptide toxin originally isolated from the venom of the cone snail Conus textile. It strongly potentiates ASIC3 by directly binding to the channel, thus modulating the proton-activated current. Cono RPRF-amide belongs to the subgroup of cono-RFamides containing C-terminal sequence of four amino acids and a C-terminal Arg-Phe-NH2 (RFa) motif. Research shows that injection of the cono-RFamide in mice muscle enhanced acid-induced muscle pain1.ASIC channels are proton-gated Na+ channels directly activated by extracellular protons. They are expressed throughout the CNS and the peripheral nervous systeM They are responsible for synaptic transmission and detection of painful acidosis. ASICs play an important role in several physiological and pathological conditions including synaptic plasticity and learning, fear conditioning, and neurodegeneration associated with ischemic stroke1,2.
